HMIE

“Young people in the school are confident, friendly and well motivated. They are regularly active and independent in their learning. They often work in small groups, taking turns and respecting the views of others. In almost all classes, they use ICT well to develop their independence in learning. For example, in several departments they undertake research using the Internet to deepen their understanding of their studies. Across the school, staff and young people treat each other with equality, fairness and respect.”
